What Wheels would look good on my GREEN car? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

***S14DB*** · 08-25-2005, 02:23 AM

I'm looking at getting FN01RC's for my car. I can't decide on the color for them. Matte Black or Titanium Bronze seem to be the finalists with Black w/silver lip in 3rd place.

Falken Hanabi is also a choice:

Thoughts?

kandyflip445 · 08-25-2005, 02:31 AM

I would go with the Brushed Aluminum or the Matte Black. I think the Bronze look better on the maroon s13's (like mine, lol).

I actually don't like the look of the black with polised lip. The lip seems to fat compared to the rest of the rim and it just doesn't look right to me when it is on a car. Off of a car it looks very nice. Just my opinion.

Hanabi's I don't like at all.

So. MATTE BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. Why are you not making your own decision....lol

***S14DB*** · 08-25-2005, 02:37 AM

I liked the Bronze till I saw this Z with Matte black:

So, I like both. But, I don't have to look at my car while driving...

A Spec Products · 08-25-2005, 02:40 AM

Hyper Black or Matte Black.

If I had to be decisive, I'd do Hyper Black.

Reason being is I would rather have the wheels stand out from the car visually, that's my $.02.

StudentDrifter · 08-25-2005, 02:44 AM

I like Titanium Bronze

TAMTANIUM · 08-25-2005, 02:59 AM

If your car is a lighter green than that Z green...then get Bronze! it will look very nice

Sky240PWR · 08-25-2005, 03:01 AM

either the tit bronze or the gold ( i would pick gold with a green car)

Revolver Ocelot · 08-25-2005, 03:03 AM

Yea:
Light color= Bronze
Dark color= Black

***S14DB*** · 08-25-2005, 03:08 AM

Here's my car when I first bought it:

I really don't like silver and yes I have coilovers now....

Revolver Ocelot · 08-25-2005, 03:21 AM

Dam either black or bronze would look good with that color. I would lean more towards bronze, but that is a personnel preference.

TurDz · 08-25-2005, 03:33 AM

Bronze to attract good attention...black to look like a ricer/racer.

ALTRNTV · 08-25-2005, 03:36 AM

Bronze.

Here's my old s13 with bronze rims. Almost the same green as your car, only darker.

*driftracer* · 08-25-2005, 06:40 AM

MY personal preference for that color car would be Matte Black. Good luck making your decision

Johny5 · 08-25-2005, 07:12 AM

brushed silver or gold hands down. since you seem to be a bit on the subtle side, brushed silver. you can never, ever, ever go wrong with brushed aluminum.

***S14DB*** · 08-25-2005, 07:43 AM

I don't like the silver with the green now. The contrast is to great. Sticks out.

id go with the black if you don't like silver, bronze will just look weird on that green...also your antenna is weaksauce

upSLIDEdown · 08-25-2005, 08:23 AM

Personally, I was going to go with gold on my green S13 fastback, but my green is darker than that. I agree, I don't think gold or bronze will look right on that tone of green. I good friend of mine has an S14 zenki that's green. He's rocking Burning Black Works. I know you said you don't like silver also. So go with hyperblack. I think that would look the best on that color. I've never been a huge fan of the matte black myself. I think black wheels look best on black cars. It's your car though, you do what you like.

wootwoot · 08-25-2005, 10:18 AM

I like either flat black or gold. Gold is just pimp and works good with dark colors

chmercer · 08-25-2005, 10:21 AM

silver. done.

there was more to my post about the subject, that was just some added criticisim

SimpleS14 · 08-25-2005, 11:09 AM

I decided to go with Matte Black because I didn't want my car to stand out too much...

Thanks for the picture!

speedjay · 08-25-2005, 01:26 PM

bronze...

Zen S14 · 08-25-2005, 01:35 PM

I think black or bronze with polished lip looks good with the color.

Yeah, yeah. The Hanabi's don't like you either!

infinitexsound · 08-25-2005, 06:39 PM

green and bronze or gold... never liked black wheels...

Flipzide · 08-25-2005, 07:12 PM

i would go with the gold or bronze.. for some reason they look really good on green 240s..ive seen em around and i like it.

only reason i wouldnt get black is because its more common than bronze....well in my area lol

originalsin · 08-25-2005, 07:54 PM
